Pop Vocals, Music Theater, Freestyle

My ladies Acappella choir is award winning and I still regularly perform and compete myself.

I am a highly respected and prominent multi-instrumentalist and singer.

In 2019 I wrote, produced and sang three number one records in the USA.

Electric Bass Guitar, Pop Vocals, Freestyle

As a professional musician of many decades, I have been privileged to work with some amazing "well known" bands over the years. Working on both bass guitar and vocals, I have a style of playing that I am told is unique! I have co-written jingles and performed on many famous songs. My passion is to encourage and teach you to master vocals, harmony work or learn bass guitar styles and techniques so that you can improve your performance! I develop lessons that are tailored to your requirements and not rigid in structure! Boring lessons mean you don’t enjoy your craft and don’t retain the information! Let’s change that!

Fun, energy and passion are the fundamentals of my teaching, and over 22 years of experience has enabled me to finely tune this recipe for successful and enjoyable learning. My lessons are far from formulaic, but instead are based on getting the best out of each individual and their natural learning style. I have a first class BMus Honours degree and an A* in Music A-Level. I specialized in Jazz performance in America in my final year of my degree and also have a wealth of experience performing Jazz; playing lead saxophone in several jazz bands, and leading my own jazz trio on piano. Additionally, I have a strong classical music background. I hold an ABRSM Diploma in Piano Performance, as well as a distinction in grade 8 piano, saxophone and singing. I currently run a 16-strong vocal group who meet weekly, and I am part of a 3-piece, 3-part-vocal-harmony band locally. I live by the sea in beautiful Cornwall where I work in primary and secondary schools, both private and state. I teach classroom and instrumental music to all levels and abilities. I also teach privately online (very popular at the moment). I am a classically trained teacher of jazz, classical and pop music, and have taught piano, keyboard, saxophone, clarinet, flute, recorder, guitar, ukulele, bass guitar, singing and drums in both individual and group lesson settings. I love to teach all genres of music to all ages. I have also taught in the classroom (Key Stage 2 to A-Level) over the last 12 years. I was nearly put off music at a young age by a piano teacher who was rigid and allowed for little creativity or input from myself. My approach to learning is very different! If your aim is to learn your favourite songs then I will transcribe for you and get you rocking for your next family get together. If you want to achieve success in your music grades then the focus will switch. I well understand what it takes to achieve fast and sustained progress, and not just musically. I played for the Great Britain Ultimate Frisbee team for 10 years and competed in the World Games in Taiwan. A big part of it is, of course, relentless effort and deliberate practice. But having fun and enjoying yourself is also super important and will make the hard work much easier! For the last 22 years, I have been a full-time music teacher and musician, mostly in and around London, and more recently down here in Cornwall, since 2016. I teach up to diploma level on piano, saxophone, clarinet and flute, from both the classical and jazz exam syllabuses, as well as guitars (including ukulele and bass), drums and singing up to grade 5. I have a 100% career success pass-rate of a merit or above for all exams my pupils have entered. I can teach to any exam syllabus, classical or jazz, but particularly like using Trinity, ABRSM, Rock School and Trinity Rock and Pop. For the last 12 years, in schools, I have been teaching whole-class instrumental lessons on recorder, clarinet, flute, keyboard and ukulele. This has included teaching whole-class samba band and singing, and running weekly whole-school singing assemblies and termly music concerts, as well as planning whole-school music curriculum. Previously I have taught song-writing, harmony and music theory to GCSE and A-Level students. Above all else, my number one priority during my lessons is that my pupils are thoroughly enjoying themselves and making excellent progress. Music should be nothing but fun, first and foremost, or children just won’t want to practice and therefore won’t progress. I’ve known far too many children and adults over the years who have had such negative experiences with traditional, ridged and non-bending teachers that they have simply given up and have had no desire to ever come back to music. This is nothing short of a tragedy. I know I provide the polar opposite experience to this. I ensure that I enthuse and inspire each and every one of my pupils, and that my lessons are full of fun and enjoyment, encouragement and positivity, whilst being jam-packed with progress, development and rewarding learning at the same time. This combination ensures that each and every one of my pupils is eager to continue their musical journey with me, can’t wait to get home and practice, and thus make huge leaps forwards in their progress week by week. I believe I am an excellent teacher. I have always established great working relationships with my pupils and parents alike, which I believe to be one of the most important aspects of great teaching practice. I love to get my pupils involved in choosing some of the pieces they want to learn, and produce bespoke sheet music for each child, at any level, on any instrument. One week they could be playing Ed Sheeran, the next it could be the Pokemon theme! There are no limits. Regardless of their level and ability, I will write out music to suit each child’s very specific needs. I also can create backing tracks for my pupils to play along to at home. I believe in strong relationships, clear communication and high levels of organization, whilst incorporating a variety of wider aspects of music in my lessons too: Duet sight-reading together, classical, pop and jazz music, improvisation, piano accompaniment, singing, song writing, play-along backing tracks, group collaboration with other instrumentalists, playing by ear, ad libing and composition, to name but a few.

Classical Voice, Jazz Voice, Pop Vocals, Music Theater, Freestyle

I consider myself to be an eclectic musician meaning I appreciate and enjoy ALL styles of music. I have more than 20 years of performing, coaching, teaching, providing workshops, adjudicating all styles of singing that range from classical to pop to gospel to rock and much more. My purpose is to make sure that each student achieves success based on what he or she wishes to succeed. But most important, I seek to make sure my students develop a love and passion for music which will allow them to become individuals filled with enthusiasm, motivation and willingness to enjoy life, family, friends, but especially themselves.

Jazz Voice, Pop Vocals, Music Theater, Freestyle

I began in the entertainment business when I was 7 years old and appeared in the British Movie Here We Go Round The Mulberry Bush in 1967. After trying several proper jobs I discovered that I was actually “allergic” to real work and at a very young age I decided to become a musician. I studied Musical Theater and acting for 4 years at the University Of Hertfordshire in the UK and subsequently acted in several UK TV shows and movies including The Young Americans with Harvey Keitel and Judge Dredd with Sylvester Stallone. I am an award-winning writer of Musical Theater winning the Vivian Ellis Best Composer Award along with my co-writers in 1996. My shows have been staged in the West End of London at the London Palladium and Her Majesty’s Theatre. In 1990 I wrote the million-selling hit single Dirty Cash/Money Talks, which got to number 1 in the UK charts and number 25 in the US Billboard. I have also had two number ones in the Billboard Club Chart. In 1993 Simon Cowell signed me as an artist to his Arista label in London. Three months later the label went into receivership. I often wonder what happened to that Cowell chap! I was subsequently signed to BMG then Sony records as a vocalist for the band Surreal Madrid. Sir Paul McCartney produced one of the Surreal Madrid tracks. A month later I had the privilege of singing back up vocals for Paul at a Buddy Holly tribute gig in Trafalgar Square London. My good friend Dean Collinson then invited me to join his newly formed backing agency and my first gig was to sing back up for the Spice Girls. I teach vocals in a fun and educative way. I offer the full Pop Star experience. As well as instructing students in the techniques of vocal production I also teach them about the recording process, song writing and performance. I record all my students and we are constantly in production working on and recording new songs. I am happy to teach Musical Theater, Rock, Pop and R&B. I am not a “cookie cutter” vocal coach. I understand that we are all different and techniques that work for one person may not work for another. I work on a student’s uniqueness and individuality so no two lessons are exactly the same. Two years ago one of my students Whitney Lynn Smith got through to the first round of American Idol. She is now working on her first CD in Nashville Tennessee. Another of my student’s Élan is just about to sign with Sony EMI. Mary Rose has been signed to One Source Talent in New York and 19-year-old male vocalist Jay Todd who has been a student of mine for about 6 months has just signed a development deal with Atlantic Records in Boston. I’m really looking forward to working with you. Mick

Jazz Voice, Pop Vocals, Jazz Piano, Keyboard

Hello, I studied classical piano as a child for seven years but later decided to change genre to playing modern and jazz piano of which became my living. I studied with the London College of Music and obtained an advanced certificate in piano performance and composition. I also studied classical voice but later decided that jazz was my thing, so I studied with some of best players and singers who taught me my craft. I also teach keyboards up to grade 4, and have taught in primary schools, later opening a school of my own, where I taught jazz and pop piano/vocals and keyboards. I've been a professional musician for nearly forty years and have worked all over the world. I would love an opportunity to work on your platform as I am now winding down with the traveling and want to get back to teaching. I really enjoy it, and love nurturing those pupils who have real talent, but also the ones who really love music and want to achieve their goal. Many Thanks, Jacqueline Waugh
